The Dodge Demon is a bad investment

The car itself is amazing. It has a little over 800hp and enough torque to throw you into the trunk. But with a close to six figure price tag, I can justify it selling well. 

The cars main purpose is to be a drag car first, then a daily driver. I don't even know who could daily drive this. It's the most powerful production V8 with a 2.7L supercharger, but even then it's more of a drag car. If you're buying it to take it to the drag strip on the weekends, good luck. Right after testing, the NHRA (National Hot Rod Association) banned it from the track since it did under 10 seconds stock. For it to be legal, you'd have to modify the whole interior of the car by adding a role cage, thus making it illegal for the street. Then you're stuck with a very expensive drag car that you would have to tow to the track. 

I respect Dodge for showing that they can do more than the Hellcat, but the Demon just seems like a show off product rather than something useful. At least with the Hellcat, you can take it to the drag strip and race it without having to really change anything, then you can drive it around the street too. Maybe this is just my bias opinion for not being a fan of domestic cars, but I just don't see this car selling well. 

Seeing as though I can't afford the car, I can't tell people what to do. If it makes you happy, buy it and enjoy it.

I'm with you on the price, its simply a muscle car and muscle cars should be powerful, but affordable. Only American performance cars I could justify paying that price for is the Corvette and the Ford GT.
